Patent number: 12281291Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to miniaturized chambers for automatically conducting cell culture under controlled environment conditions. In some implementation examples, a system includes a first chamber, a second chamber, and a control subsystem. The control subsystem detects a first environment condition associated with the first chamber and a second environment condition associated with the second chamber. Based at least on the first environment condition and a first airflow mode, the control subsystem supplies a first airflow to the first chamber to adjust the first environment condition toward a first target environment condition. Based at least on the second environment condition and a second airflow mode, the control subsystem supplies a second airflow to the second chamber to adjust the second environment condition toward a second target environment condition.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2024Date of Patent: April 22, 2025Assignee: IVFpro LLCInventor: Ta-Chin Lin

Publication number: 20250093635Abstract: A microscopic operating device includes a microscopically image capturing mechanism and a processing mechanism mounted on the seat mechanism. The microscopically image capturing mechanism includes a microscopically image capturing unit moved and adjusted in an up-down direction and having two microscope lenses. The processing mechanism is actuated to move downwardly to reach a field of view of the microscope lenses and to process to biosamples in a sample container. With the two microscope lenses and a processing unit of the processing mechanism, the position of the processing unit relative to the biosamples can be observed from different angles so as to conduct a precise processing procedure.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 4, 2023Publication date: March 20, 2025Inventor: Ta-Chin LIN

Patent number: 10045598Abstract: The contact lens case structure includes a main body, a number of elastic members, a number of carrier members, a number of cover members, and a number of hollowed-out pressing members. The main body has a number of accommodation spaces. Each elastic member is housed in an accommodation space. A contact lens is placed on a carrier member which in turn is placed on an elastic member. Each pressing member is housed inside a cover member. Each accommodation space is filled with solution. Each cover member is joined to an accommodation space. Each pressing member presses a top side of a carrier member, which in turn compresses an elastic member so that the contact lens is immersed in the solution. The contact lens is held between the pressing member and the carrier member with enhanced cleaning and sterilization effect and is prevented from deformation.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2017Date of Patent: August 14, 2018Assignee: BONASSE ENTERPRISES CO., LTD.Inventor: Ta-Chin Lin

Publication number: 20170065045Abstract: A contact lens case structure includes: a main body, one end thereof being open and another end thereof being closed to form an accommodation space, at least one elastic element being configured inside the main body, and one end of the elastic element being configured with a carrier configured with holes; and a cover, in connection with the open end of the main body to close the accommodation space, and at least one positioning portion being configured inside the cover. The positioning portions press the carrier downward to compress the elastic elements, thereby accepting a contact lens in the accommodation space. When the cover is separated from the case, an elastic restoring force of the elastic element pushes the carrier upward to move the contact lens to the top end of the main body in such a way to be convenient for a user to take it out.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 16, 2016Publication date: March 9, 2017Inventor: TA-CHIN LIN

Patent number: 6931295Abstract: A method of calculating lot hold time. First, identification parameters of a lot are input. The lot may be a split child lot or an unsplit parent lot. The identification parameters include an identification code and a customer hold code of the lot. The identification code identifies the lot type. The customer hold code identifies the holder. Lot hold time is then calculated according to the identification parameters. Finally, the lot hold time is output for further utilization.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2003Date of Patent: August 16, 2005Assignee: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Chun-Hung Lin, Ta-Chin Lin

Patent number: 6931296Abstract: A method and system for flexible, comprehensive, on-line, real-time dynamic lot dispatching in a semiconductor test foundry based on a two-phased, event-driven dispatching system structure. An adjustable priority formula and tuned algorithms integrated with PROMIS' constraint function give a nearly optimum dispatching list on any tester at any time with reduced mistake operations. Exception rules take care of special events to improve daily dispatching manual effort. This invention can automatically dispatch engineering lots according to engineering lots' capacity of Testing, solve conflict between wafer and package lots, efficiently reduce tester setup times, replace daily manual-dispatching sheet and keep a high CLIP rate while fully following MPS.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2003Date of Patent: August 16, 2005Assignee: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Ta-Chin Lin, Yi-Feng Huang, Fu-Kang Lai, Jen-Chih Hsiao

Patent number: 6876894Abstract: A method and apparatus for simulating the functioning of various configurations of fabrication and test equipment within a manufacturing line creates a schedule for dispatching of the production lots to the manufacturing line. Based on the product mix forecast, the product volume forecast, the predicted sales schedule, the sales confidence, the actual sales order descriptions, and the product delivery schedule, a potential product dispatch schedule is established that enables a product to be fabricated within the manufacturing line. An equipment dispatch schedule for equipment employed in fabrication and testing of the product to be fabricated is defined according to the product dispatch schedule. The potential product dispatch schedule is then simulated based on the process and test equipment model. Upon completion of the simulation, the potential product dispatch schedule is assessed for optimization.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2003Date of Patent: April 5, 2005Assignee: Taiwan Semiconductor Maufacturing Company, Ltd.Inventors: Nai-Chiang Chen, Ta-Chin Lin, Joseph Chang, Chung-Shen Chen, Vincent Chiu
